Fanatic I was hoping this thread would die.
They sold out their 3 production copies to themselves.
It's funny because whenever I would say anything about this lately my post is deleted. I emailed them and got same reply. Like.. right.. sold out my ass.
That and not even a video demo or a picture that isn't rendered.
I haven't seen any of their hardware out there in the field.
yea, I had high hopes for this one as well - especially with the tariffs on buying from China. But yea sold out? when did they ever start selling?
never

I agree about "prove their specs". I have not seen a video showing a demo of this miner from a real person hooking
it up to a watt meter,etc, etc. The only images and videos of the miner is from a highly computer-generated promo
video that shows an animated fan spinning on the miner. I can't believe that the first "mass" production is finished
and sold when there is absolutely zero proof that this miner exists outside of their computer-generated promo.
I am not saying it is a scam because no one has lost money over this that I know of. But they probably don't want
to "lose face" over their failure to produce a real product from their hype.

This is the same info they have been responding with for months.
The fact now is that the s15 has been delivered to the public and is on spec. So they would now be up against hardware that is available and in the market, if they launch now they need to be priced below the s15, and prove their specs.
That or hold the equipment and hope for another large run up and a hardware shortage.
Either way I've given up on this company.

sold out but it it hasnt been on sale.. seems legit.
I very much wanted this project to be legit. They are very polite with their correspondences,
but they always say to watch their official website for announcements. Then with no announcement
whatsoever on their website, they tell me their first "mass" production is sold out. No amount of
politeness can put lipstick on this.
Just got this email from them...

Not really their target specs that were released would still be one of the most efficient pieces of hardware out there if it ships within the next couple months. It would just have to be priced accordingly.
I'm guessing they ran out of funds or lost funding part way through the project. The other option being they chose to mine for themselves. Those are the only explanations I could think of for allowing your product to lose all the momentum it had early on.
Either way I don't think this is ever going to hit the market. I'm just glad there was no pre-sale involved.

price is what I was referring to. with it being their first release, I doubt they will want or even try to be price competitive.
will be very hard for them to be competitive at this point.

Emailed a couple days ago, no reply. Not sure if this company is going to deliver as of lately.. We are now looking at a 2019 miner which I doubt will be a low price.

agreed - and all I get from them thru Skype is that they are working on it.
Same when I have emailed them. There isn't even a price yet.

More than half way through month and nothing for sale still... not looking great

Gaku Matsushima is the Public Relations guy.
Gaku, my contact at Triple-1, says: "1st version is for our limited customers and price for general customers is still considering carefully now."
If you know what's Gaku's role there? There has been 0 new/useful communication to come from them for months now, pretty much since they announced themselves.
If they do have a product they have blown their big shot to get them sold and emerge as a leading competitor. I'm not just saying that due to the advertised efficiencies, but they had the opportunity to swoop in as a hell of a deal considering they could dodge the tariffs. Now the market is significantly less favorable, but they still have that advantage for the time being if they get their shit together; assuming they can.
It all just sounds ridiculous, that their only issue is figuring out a price, considering these should have already been shipped out based on the original roadmap. Excuses like that really taint their credibility. I could understand them making a release that says we ran behind on production or provided some real information.
